Abstract

Let’s assist the classroom layout memorization of blind children with voice-guided teaching materials! Visually impaired children newly enrolled in blind schools often face significant anxiety due to their unfamiliarity with classroom layouts. Without teacher assistance, they cannot go anywhere, adding to their stress. Therefore, ‘Voice-guided Tactile School Building Models’ and ‘Classroom Name Announcement System,’ enabling students to confirm room layouts through artificial voice, were developed to promote a sense of peacefulness and independent mobility. These systems were donated to 10 blind schools nationwide. This report discusses teaching material implementation and the educational effects.
